    The U.S. military in eastern Afghanistan recently changed its media embed rules to ban pictures of troops killed in the war.

    “Media will not be allowed to photograph or record video of U.S. personnel killed in action,” says a ground rules document issued Sept. 15 by Regional Command East at Bagram Air Field.

    This language is new. A version of the same document dated July 23 says, “Media will not be prohibited from covering casualties” as long as a series of conditions are met.

    Pictures of American military deaths are rare, but until now they have not been officially banned during either of the ongoing wars.

    The new language was added in early September, according to a military spokesperson, Master Sgt. Tom Clementson of Regional Command East Public Affairs. Clementson described it as “a clarification rather than a new rule.”

      Maybe fresh photos of our fallen ones will spark some kind of fire in the hearts of these narcissistic, self absorbed, anti-depressant drugged morons we have to call our neighbors. Oh, by the way……..were you able to get to the range last weekend? I know it’s expensive, even for myself with the Dillon 1050, components aren’t cheap. I’m running low on the blue UN silhouettes for the 500yd work. Guess it’ll be butcher paper/sharpie and cheap Krylon from now on.

      It’s not happening; I said so, it’s not happening and I can prove it: you don’t see anything, do you? So, it’s not happening, just forget it…you will thank us when the pipelines are built and we can suck off all the world’s oil to feel the rush of adrenaline and all the self-important arrogant aggression that goes with it. Winning the oil is winning the world. Gee, don’t you feel good knowing we will own the world soon…unless you see it….unless you know….what is going on……

      Uh, the word is spelled “USURY” not “TREASURY”

      Sounds just like what was done in Vietnam!! Stop the info coming out, or Scrub the info so that everything is under control so that there will be less dissent coming from the U.S. about being involved over there!!!

    9. twintowertruth Says:

      God commanded us not to kill in his 10 commandments. Why does American military (which is working for the elite, NOT AMERICA think they are excempt from this law of God? They are not engaging in self defense, but are the bad guys here! If weveryone would go back to the bible, instead of Rockefellar’s will, we would be much better off!

      THE L I E, is that which you must resist !

      When these self-deluded(thinking themselves ‘illuminated’ or the people’s ‘betters’) inheritors of the whole earth at the cost of the loss of their own souls; These TRUE FOOLS, should-not in any way coerce or lure any to accept their CENSORING THE TRUTH ! They were LIARS and MURDERERS, from the start !

      COME OUT FROM AMONG THEM ! Deal-not in their L I E S ! Perveyers of death and darkness stupidity want graff and falling out with GOD ALL-MIGHTY. BE NOT AMONG THESE.

      PUBLISH,…PUBLISH,…PUBLISH !

      When they talk about the wars on TV they debate how many troops to send or what’s the best strategy to “win”. Never debate why are we there or should we be there at all. And the casualties are never discussed on either side.

    12. ARM-RESIST Says:

      They want you to go fight and die “for your country”, but they don’t want you or your country to see that you may end up a splattered carcass.

    13. insanity Says:

      If the elitist scum were as invincible as they pretended, they wouldn’t be able to care less who knows what, and who sees American dead or not. Fact is, they are totally fucked and the only thing keeping their heads above water is our ignorance, cowardice, and their complete lies and propaganda.

    14. higgs Says:

      the people of america want the troops to go to afgan and iraq and iran.

    15. HeyBilly Says:

      Can’t have photos that might sway public opinion. Hear no evil. See no evil.

      higgs Reply:

      public opinion is that the troops should be sent to defend our freedom.

      Just ask someone, they will tell you that the troops invade to protect our freedom. That’s the public opinion.

      If a country is governed wisely, its inhabitants will be content. They enjoy the labour of their hands and don’t waste time inventing labour saving machines. Since they dearly love their homes, they aren’t interested in travel. There may be a few wagons and boats, but these don’t go anywhere. There may be an arsenal of weapons, but nobody ever uses them. People enjoy their food,take pleasure in being with there families,spend weekends in their gardens. And even though the next country is so close that people can hear its roosters crowing and its dogs barking, they are content to die of old age without ever having gone to see it. Peace to all

      do post photos of
      afghan civilians men women children
      held prison for no reason tortured terrorized killed by american troops
      and put posters all over the place world wide

    19. Show The Pictures! Says:

      Sounds like Vietnam to me!

      The pictures of our dead soldiers MUST be put on the Web so, the Public will see first hand what Obama-Bush continues to perpetuate as a “NO WIN WAR”!

      What the matter Generals with no balls – showing the Public their dead sons, daughters, husbands, and wives might make you STOP your War Games?

      For the Public, know this – the American Dead is far greater than the lies the Media is telling you. Battles in wars ALWAYS means someone dies! Lots of soldiers die! So, just because the pictures of dead soldiers are forbidden, doesn’t mean no one was killed!

      We lost in Korea because, we were fighting a fake threat – Communism (now, our trading partners).
      we lost in Vietnam because, we were fighting a fake threat – Communism (now, our trading partners).
      We are losing in Iraq because, we ARE fighting a fake threat – Terrorism!
      We are losing in Afghanistan because, we are fighting a fake threat – Terrorism!

      Most anti-war people have never served and just plain don’t know what they are talking about!

      Most of the American Armed forces are the last ones to know the truth!

      To call our troops baby killers and such is dead wrong!

      I don’t care what non Americans say.but most people just blame the wrong people!

      Stop bashing our military!

      Good, also lets show pictures of the 40 Chicago school kids murdered this school year so far. Lets also see the pictures of all the raped and murderd kids and women that happen daily in every major American city!

    27. therealdeal Says:

      What would be the logical reason for wanting to see one of your own countrymen…dead? If you really want to see your militaries casualties then you might have problems. You could easily research our number of casualties if need be. The press has always been in it to get a good story, and apparently us having losses gets more attention than us doing well. Everyday the Americans could kill 50 hodgies and have no casualties and youll never hear about that. On the other hand, 15 Americans go down and the story will be all over. Not saying i agree with the war, but there are certain things that shouldnt be involved along with it. And yes…it reminds me alot of Vietnam in that the press trys to make it look WORSE…for a BETTER story. Just my two cents, from someone whos seeing this war…first hand.

      I wrote this 911 article for people who haven’t been exposed to 911 truth and who aren’t likely to take the innitiative to research it themselves. I believe we can still reach those people. They are not going to go digging into 911 at this late date, but if they take fifteen minutes to read the article it will leave nagging questions in their mind that will not be easily dismissed.

      People who are now on the sidelines can still be brought into the game. They may never be first string but they could at least become supporters. More than anything, people just need a little help to wake up from their propaganda enduced stupor. I would like to see people all over the world print it and use it as a tool, as a handout, to put on windshields etc.

      I know my little article is preaching to the choir, but it isn’t meant for the choir. It is intended for the uninitiated, and it works very well for waking up even the disinterested.

    31. Why are the schools banning Pro Life Protests? Says:

      Curious, I keep on reading up on the kids getting kicked out, or off of the property etc etc etc for one simple thing… an unarmed protest, practicing their freedoms of speech, or lack of, by covering their mouths with tape with the words Pro -Life and a tiny heart on the tape placed across their lips … etc
      Why are the schools and governments against any , and I stress, any and all Pro-Life Protests???? I guess Obama etc wont get their stem cell research without the Babies .. if the Moms and Dads choose LIFE?? I smell a rotten Norway Rat in this …
